1. Designation. There shall be a series of Preferred Convertible Stock designated as “Series C Preferred Stock” (the “Series C Preferred Stock”) and the number of shares constituting that series shall be 3,500. The Original Issuance Price of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be $4,300.00 per share.

 

2. Voting. Except as may be otherwise provided herein or by law, the Series C Preferred Stock shall vote together with all others classes and series of stock of the Corporation as a single class on all actions to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation, including, but not limited to actions amending the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to such number of votes per share on each such action as shall equal the number of shares of Common Stock (including fractions of a share) into which each share of Series C Preferred Stock is then convertible. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, until the Company received Stockholder Approval, as defined below, the aggregate number of votes by all Series C Holders as a group shall not exceed the votes associated with the number of shares of Common Stock as equals the Issuance Limit, as defined below.

 

 

 

 

3. Dividends. (a) The holders of shares of the Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, out of assets of the Corporation legally available therefor, dividends on a pro rata basis with all other holders of the Series C Preferred Stock and all holders of Common Stock (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations or splits with respect to such stock).

 

(b) Each fractional share of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding shall be entitled to a ratably proportionate amount of any dividends or other distributions made with respect to each outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock, and all such distributions shall be payable in the same manner and at the same time as distributions on each outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock.

 

4. Liquidation. (a) Upon any liquidation, merger, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of Series C Preferred will be entitled to receive in preference to the holders of Common, an amount equal to the Original Purchase Price multiplied by one hundred eleven percent (111%) (the “Liquidation Preference”).

 

(b) If the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to the holders of Series C Preferred Stock upon any liquidation, merger, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, shall be insufficient to pay the full preferential amount to which holders of the Series C Preferred Stock are entitled pursuant to Section 4(a) above, of this Certificate of Designation, holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall share all available assets of the Corporation on a pro rata basis.

 

(c) The Corporation shall give each holder of Series C Preferred Stock written notice of any liquidation, merger, dissolution or winding up not later than 15 days prior to any meeting of stockholders to approve such dissolution, liquidation or winding up or, if no meeting is to be held, not later than 30 days prior to the date of such dissolution, liquidation or winding up.

 

5. Conversions. The holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall have the following conversion rights:

 

(a) Right to Convert. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5, the holder of any share or shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall have the right, at its option at any time, to convert each share of Series C Preferred Stock into 10,000 shares of fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock (the “Conversion Ratio”). Such rights of conversion shall be exercised by the holder thereof by giving written notice that the holder elects to convert a stated number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock into Common Stock and by surrender of a certificate or certificates for the shares so to be converted to the Corporation at its principal office (or such other office or agency of the Corporation as the Corporation may designate by notice in writing to the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock) at any time during its usual business hours on the date set forth in such notice, together with a statement of the name or names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall issued.

 

(b) Issuance of Certificates. Promptly after the receipt of the written notice referenced to in subsection 5(a) and surrender of the certificate or certificates for the share or shares or Series C Preferred Stock to be converted, the Corporation shall issue and deliver, or cause to be issued and delivered, to the holder registered in such name or names as such holder may direct, a certificate or certificates for the number of whole shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of such share or shares of Series C Preferred Stock. To the extent permitted by law, such conversion shall be deemed to have been effected and the Conversion Ratio shall be determined as of the close of business on the date on which such written notice shall have been received by the Corporation and the certificate or certificates for such share or shares shall have been surrendered as aforesaid, and at such time the rights of the holder of such share or shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall cease, and the person or persons in whose name or names any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the shares represented thereby.

(c) Fractional Shares; Dividends; Partial Conversion. No fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion of Series C Preferred Stock into Common Stock and no payment or adjustment shall be made upon any conversion on account of any cash dividends on the Common Stock issued upon such conversion. At the time of each conversion, the Corporation shall pay in cash an amount equal to all dividends declared and unpaid on the shares of Series C Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion to the date upon which such conversion is deemed to take place as provided in subsection 4(b), but no payment or adjustment shall be made on account of any accrued dividends that have not been declared. In case the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock represented by the certificate or certificates surrendered pursuant to subsection 4(a) exceeds the number of shares converted, the Corporation shall, upon such conversion, execute and deliver to the holder, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock represented by the certificate or certificates surrendered which are not to be converted. If any fractional share of Common Stock would; except for the provisions of the first sentence of this subsection 5(c), be delivered upon such conversion, the Corporation, in lieu of delivering such fractional share, shall pay to the holder surrendering the Series C Preferred Stock for conversion an amount in cash equal to the current market price of such fractional share as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

 

(d) Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Corporation shall at any time or from time to time effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock (also known as a forward stock split), the Conversion Ratio in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding.

 

(e) Reorganization or Reclassification. If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Corporation shall be effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then as it condition of such reorganization or reclassification, lawful and adequate provisions shall be made whereby each holder of a shares or Series C Preferred Stock shall thereupon have the right to receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified herein and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore receivable upon the conversion of such share or shares of Series C Preferred Stock, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of such Common Stock equal to the number of shares of such Common Stock immediately theretofore receivable upon such conversion had such reorganization or reclassification not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provisions shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of such holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including without limitation provisions for adjustments of Conversion Ratio) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of such conversion rights.
